Crist's GOP supporters disguised as Democrats

[Freddie Stubbs]

Last I checked, state Sen. Mike Fasano was a Republican. But his political committee backing Gov. Charlie Crist's unorthodox bid for the U.S. Senate, Friends for Freedom and Prosperity, has a new mailing that reads as if it has the Democratic party's best interests at heart.

The sad reality is, our party's nominee for the U.S. Senate can't win the election. And every vote for him moves the Republican, Marco Rubio, closer to victory...It's a difficult decision for Florida Democrats, but our future depends on it.

One side of the mailing features a mock-up of a newspaper's front page with the headline, "Rubio Elected to U.S. Senate.'' The idea is to scare Democrats into voting for Crist.
